On Fire
Luke Wade Lyrics

This house is burning down
Despite the fact that things seem to be falling apart around me, I am unfazed.

But I don't care
I am not concerned about the outward destruction because I am focused on something more important.

Everything I thought we had
The relationship that I believed we had is now gone.

Is just ash in the air
All that is left of what we had is emptiness and hurt.

Can't stay in here
I cannot continue in the way that things are.

Don't want to get out
Despite needing a change, I am still drawn to what I know.

Fires not from gasoline
This destruction around me is not caused by an external force, but by something within me.

But the taste of your mouth
What is consuming me is my all-consuming passion for the one I love.

Don't want to be in love
I am hesitant to commit myself in this way.

Unless we're burnin' up
But if I am going to love, I want it to be with everything I have.

I wanna feel it, oh I wanna feel it all
I want to experience the fullness of love, not just a fraction of it.

Could never be enough
Anything less than this all-consuming love would not be sufficient for me.

I don't wanna live if I'm living without you
Without the person I love, life has no real meaning for me.

I would never leave rather burn here beside you
I would rather go through all the difficulties and challenges, as long as I have the one I love by my side.

The smoke is pouring in
Despite the obvious danger, I am willing to continue in this relationship.

I take my time
I am willing to be patient and wait for things to work out.

Walking over coals and flames
I am willing to endure whatever trials come my way in order to stay with the one I love.

While you make up your mind
I am willing to give the other person the space and time they need to decide if they want to commit to the relationship.

Can't keep you here
However, I know that I cannot force the other person to stay with me.

If you want to get out
If the other person decides to leave, I must accept their decision and let them go.

Pouring on the gasoline
If I feel that the other person might leave, I am willing to do whatever it takes to keep them by my side.

Set fire to doubt
I want to eliminate any doubts the other person might have about our relationship.

I don't wanna fall in love
I am still hesitant to commit myself fully to this relationship.

Unless we're burning up
However, if I do fall in love, I want it to be with everything I have.

I don't want to live
Without love, life has no real meaning for me.

On fire for you, on fire for you
My love for you is all-consuming and intense.
